In hindsight, probably an important step forward in the development of the team under JJ. Didn't seem it at the time.

Dundee-FC92 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Another game that comes to mind is the Quarter final of the CIS cup when Bobby Linn scored an extra time winner just after the financial troubles were announced (part 1 if you like). Remember the Hearts fans donating some money through the buckets on that night before slipping to defeat. Dundee went onto a dismal last minute defeat against the Livi at Easter road to prevent a second final in concecutive years in the cups. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it genuinely will, it was an intense game. I also think we'll have an eye on the away leg so will likely make a few changes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I definitely think we'll make changes. It's hard to play twice a week, we put in a lot of effort yesterday and because the tie is still alive, even though we are massive underdogs, I think we'll have an eye on next Thursday. However, we do have some good options so expect us to still be good enough to try and win the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eindhovendee Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 How much cash do Hearts get if they go through against PAOK? Is it worth them playing their U18s against us? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Despite the European involvement I struggle to see us getting anything out of this. Boyce and Shankand are the best strike force in the country outside the OF and I can’t see us managing them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be surprised if Boyce starts tomorrow considering how he's being managed and having played nearly the full game on Thursday. Have to imagine Tagawa or Oda will probably be alongside fiveheid. We need to be aggressive and persistent all game, and just continue to wear them down. Definitely doable and we usually do well at frustrating Hearts but it clearly won't be easy. 6 minutes ago, HeartsOfficialMoaner said: It is early days but Vargas might at the same level.

Some players can't even control the ball. Torture to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts midfield seems otherwise ‘limited’ and the defence without Halkett doesn’t seem brilliant either. Unfortunately our strikers are unlikely to take advantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eindhovendee Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I think we've looked understandably disjointed so far. I didn't see the Hearts game against PAOK but thought they were excellent against Rosenberg and for that reason I've already got the fear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Charming Man Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Recall the game in May 1986 as a 21 year old hoping for a victory taking us onto UEFA Cup qualification, nowt more or less tbh having also attended the 1-1 draw at Tynecastle with us which indeed started the massive Hearts undefeated run of games, the previous October I think. I get all the Albert Kidd nonsense and subsequent banter, however to Dee's of a similar vintage, @Bigmouth Strikes Again, @DeeTillEhDeh and @Fifespud to name but a few, do you recall (if at this game) anything as loud as the Heart's Song being sung prior to kickoff? The stadium was vibrating, I shit you not! Check out the snap of the away 'TC Keay End' crowd as Kidd scored, 19,500 attended that game. Wish we'd achieved European football that day and also Hearts had won the league, merely my honest opinion. Regards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being frightened the stadium might collapse. Like you I wish Hearts won the league that day. When I was a student and then working in Edinburgh I went to both grounds, liked both teams, but Tynecastle always felt more like home, like Dens. In fact, if I’m honest, feeling a wee bit homesick in 1st year a trip to Tynecastle used to cheer me up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Baker Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Well I too was at the game all these years ago. Of course I wanted us to qualify for Europe and I didn’t want us to be beaten but I really wish that Hearts had won the league. I blame St Mirren 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
